Hello,
Thanks for consulting HCM,
Read your query, as you have undergone extraction of third molar tooth dont worry extraction of third molar is slightly painful or if it is traumatic extraction pain is there for one week , or pain can be due to formation of dry socket also ,I will advice you to take proper course of medication prescribed by your doctor , follow all post operative procedures , take proper sleep dont take stress , if pain persist for more one to two days after extraction then consult your dentist again and go for oral examination and go for irrigation of extraction socket .
Hope this will help you.
Wishing you good health.
Regards
Dr. Priyanka tiwari

helloo....1st of all i have to say dont get tensed thinking of pain...tooth lost is lost!!!tension and thinking about pain causes more pain...be cool!!and regarding pain in the extraction area it is just a usual pain ....its on the process of healing....do warm salt water gargle daily twice....dont touch the extracted area with tongue or finger...it will heal...while brushing dont brush that area with brush....while spitting dont do harsh spitting it can cause bleeding...these are few steps which promote fast healing....regarding no pain on previous extraction i have to say that each tooth is different and situation leading to last time extraction would be not same as this time...so be happy its just healing ....be happy and smile....dont be dentophobic all dentists are just cool...waiting to serve people...hope u got my reply....have a happy and healthy day!!!
